On 11 January Sir Norman Lamb and his wife Mary visited our Thursday rehearsal where they treated to some of our repetoire before collecting a cheque in the sum of £1214.47, the result of our fundraising activities during 2023.  Sir Norman thanked the chorus and outlined some of the many smaller local charities who might benefit from this donation.  Both he and Mary stayed for coffee and biscuits chatting to most of the chorus members.  A lovely evening.
